[PATCH v3 1/5] mm: shmem: avoid unpaired folio_unlock() in shmem_swapin_folio()

From: Kemeng Shi
Date: Fri May 16 2025 - 04:15:58 EST


If we get a folio from swap_cache_get_folio() successfully but encounter
a failure before the folio is locked, we will unlock the folio which was
not previously locked.
Put the folio and set it to NULL when a failure occurs before the folio
is locked to fix the issue.
